This is so embarrassing. I had a sink full of dishes and I rinsed my paintbrushes full of oil paint in it  I know this was stupid so how do I clean my dishes that are full of oil paint. Regular soap and water does not seem to help.

You need to get paint solvent. I think its called terpentine or any solvent to remove oil-based paint from brushes and rollers. Any hardware store will have it.
Good luck  and dont worry it will come off

if you're working with oil-based paints, you should be cleaning your materials with terpentine anyway.
And don't clean any of the stuff in your kitchen sink. Do it in the bathroom sink, the bathtub or the laundry room sink. Never mind the terpentine being toxic, the paints can't be good for you either.
